Geocache Description:

Hughes Barrier Free Park, just off concrete path.

Hughes park is a 3.58 acre barrier free park, that has playground equipment designed for both handicapped and able bodied children.

This park used to be the place to take tennis lessons. I took lessons here, before Wood Valley or Kossover existed. Take time during your visit to have a look around. There is a monument on the south side of the tennis courts that is dated 1936-1937, I'm not sure if that is the date the park was established or not.

Park is open 6 am - 11 pm, so please respect these hours.

The cache is a small decon container, hidden not too far off of the concrete sidewalk. It is located at ground level. Stealth is required, but cache is hidden in an area to limit the amount of exposure.

Original contents include:
"Found it" geocoin
Guardian Angel Coin
Flower hair pin
Alien necklace
Several pretty stones
Glass frog
Bracelet
and for the FTF - 2 presidential coins - Andrew Jackson and Thomas Jefferson.

Please make sure to close tightly (on all sides) to keep out moisture. Cache does have a couple small pencils and a sharpener.

Congrats to Nicooole - FTF!
